Preparation of High‐Performance Water‐Soluble Quantum Dots for Biorecognition through Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer

An improved method for the synthesis of high‐performance and water‐soluble quantum dots (QDs) involving the encapsulation of mercaptosuccinic acid coated QDs (MSA‐QDs) with poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) followed by their direct photoactivation with fluorescent radiation near 295 K to yield PDDA‐coated QDs (PDDA‐QDs) has been demonstrated. The quantum yield (QY) of the PDDA‐QDs was significantly improved from 0.6 (QY of MSA‐QDs) to 48 %. By using this synthetic strategy, highly photoluminescent PDDA‐QDs of varied size were readily prepared. The surface properties of PDDA‐QDs and MSA‐QDs were extensively characterized. The highly luminescent and positively charged PDDA‐QDs serve as a useful and convenient tool for protein adsorption. With a Δ⁵‐3‐ketosteroid isomerase adsorbed PDDA‐QD complex, the biorecognition of steroids was demonstrated through the application of fluorescent resonance energy transfer.     

Dielectric and conducting behaviors in quasi-amorphous hybrid poly(diallyldimethylammonium phosphomolybdate)

A quasi-amorphous inorganic-organic hybrid solid, which is comprised of poly(diallyldimethylammonium) polyelectrolyte cations with phosphomolybdates and denoted as PDDA/PMA, was prepared and characterized using elemental analysis, powder x-ray diffraction, IR spectrum, thermal and energy dispersive X-ray analyses. The PDDA/PMA exhibits multistep dielectric anomalies and dielectric relaxations. The dielectric anomaly around 353 K arises partially from the water trapped in the PDDA/PMA network releasing. The PDDA/PMA was further dried under vacuum at 373 K to give water-free sample PDDA/PMA-1. With water being removed, the broad anomaly peak around 353 K in the ε′-T plot of PDDA/PMA changes into a platform in that of PDDA/PMA-1, indicating that the dielectric anomalies result from not only losing water but also the network disorder in PDDA/PMA-1. In addition, the platform strongly depends on the AC frequency in PDDA/PMA-1; the electric modulus and ion conductance analyses demonstrated that the dielectric relaxations at elevated temperature are related to the PMA ions displacing motion.

Poly(diallydimethylammonium chloride) Functionalized Graphene/Double‐walled Carbon Nanotube Composite for Amperometric Determination of Nitrite

Poly(diallydimethylammonium chloride) functionalized graphene/double‐walled carbon nanotube composite (PDDA‐GN/DWCNT) was synthesized by a facile microwave‐assisted reduction reaction. PDDA‐GN/DWCNT exhibits enhanced electrocatalytic activity towards nitrite oxidation. The direct electrooxidation behaviors of nitrite on PDDA‐GN/DWCNT were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, amperometric i‐t curve, and rotating disk electrode experiments. Under the optimum conditions, PDDA‐GN/DWCNT was applied to the quantitative analysis of nitrite with a wide linear range covering 0.07–3000 µM and a low detection limit of 0.03 µM (S/N=3). Moreover, PDDA‐GN/DWCNT exhibits satisfied results in the determination of nitrite that released from breast cancer cells.     

Construction of glucose biosensor based on sorption of glucose oxidase onto multilayers of polyelectrolyte/nanoparticles

A new approach to constructing an enzyme-containing film on the surface of a gold electrode for use as a biosensor is described. A basic multilayer film (BMF) of (PDDA/GNPs) _n /PDDA was first constructed on the gold electrode by electrostatic layer-by-layer self-assembly of poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) and gold nanoparticles (GNPs). Glucose oxidase (GOx) was then sorbed into this BMF by dipping the BMF-modified electrode into a GOx solution. The assembly of the BMF was monitored and tested via UV-vis spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The ferrocenemethanol-mediated cyclic voltammograms obtained from the gold electrode modified with the (PDDA/GNPs) _n /PDDA/GOx indicated that the assembled GOx remained electrocatalytically active for the oxidation of glucose. Analysis of the voltammetric signals showed that the surface coverage of active enzyme was a linear function of the number of PDDA/GNPs bilayers. This result confirmed the penetration of GOx into the BMF and suggests that the BMF-based enzyme film forms in a uniform manner. Electrochemical impedance measurements revealed that the biosensor had a lower electron transfer resistance (R _et) than that of a sensor prepared by layer-by-layer assembly of PDDA and GOx, due to the presence of gold nanoparticles. The sensitivity of the biosensor for the determination of glucose, which could be controlled by adjusting the number of PDDA/GNPs bilayers, was investigated.     

The photo-dehydro-Diels-Alder (PDDA) reaction

The photo-dehydro-Diels-Alder (PDDA) reaction is a valuable extension of the classical Diels-Alder (DA) reaction. The PDDA reaction differs from the DA reaction by the replacement of one of the C-C-double bonds of the diene moiety by a C-C triple bond and by the photochemical triggering of the reaction. This entails that, in contrast to the DA reaction, the PDDA reaction proceeds according to a multistage mechanism with biradicals and cycloallenes as intermediates. The PDDA reaction provides access to a considerable variety of compound classes. For example, 1-phenylnaphthlenes, 1,1'-binaphthyls, N-heterocyclic biaryls, and naphthalenophanes could be obtained by this reaction.

Nanocomposite-based lignocellulosic fibers 3: polyelectrolyte adsorption onto heterogeneous fiber surfaces

Wood and natural fibers are composed of multiple polymeric components. Lignin, one primary component, is typically removed to various degrees during paper-making, but is present on thermomechanically isolated fibers. The effect of the residual lignin on the adsorption of poly(diallyldimethylammonium) chloride (PDDA) onto lignocellulosic fibers was investigated under varying solution conditions (electrolyte concentration and pH). Using nitrogen elemental analysis it was shown for the samples containing the highest concentration of lignin, PDDA adsorption to the fibers was reduced for all solution conditions. Upon extracting the alkali-soluble lignin, the samples showed the greatest amount of PDDA adsorption, achieving ~1.6% (w/w), under neutral solution conditions without the presence of added electrolyte. Furthermore, the influence of polyelectrolyte loading and electrokinetic potential on subsequent multilayer formation of PDDA and montmorillonite clay was quantified. It was revealed that electrokinetic potential of fiber after PDDA adsorption, rather than the amount of adsorbed PDDA layer, controlled the subsequent clay adsorption. Significant mass of PDDA/clay (up to ~75% of starting dry fiber mass for only 4 bi-layers) can be adsorbed onto steam-exploded wood fibers through the multilayer assembly process. This paper provides insight into how non-covalent modification of heterogeneous fibrous substrates offers a novel route for the creation of organic/inorganic fiber materials.

Preparation of a Reduced Graphene Oxide Wrapped Lithium‐Rich Cathode Material by Self‐Assembly

A lithium‐rich cathode material wrapped in sheets of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and functionalized with polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride (PDDA) was prepared by self‐assembly induced from the electrostatic interaction between PDDA–RGO and the Li‐rich cathode material. At current densities of 1000 and 2000 mA g^?1, the PDDA–RGO sheet wrapped samples demonstrated increased discharge capacities, increasing from 125 to 155 mA h g^?1 and from 82 to 124 mA h g^?1, respectively. The decreased resistance implied by this result was confirmed from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results, wherein the charge‐transfer resistance of the pristine sample decreased after wrapping with the PDDA–RGO sheets. The PDDA–RGO sheets served as a protective layer sand as a conductive material, which resulted in an improvement in the retention capacity from 56 to 81 % after 90 cycles.     

Colloid stability of sodium dihexadecyl phosphate/poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) decorated latex

The colloid stability of supramolecular assemblies composed of the synthetic anionic lipid sodium dihexadecyl phosphate (DHP) on cationic poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) supported on polystyrene sulfate (PSS) microspheres was evaluated via turbidimetry kinetics, dynamic light scattering for particle sizing, zeta-potential analysis, and determination of DHP adsorption on PDDA-covered particles. At 0.05 g/L PDDA and 5 x 10(9) PSS particles/mL, PDDA did not induce significant particle flocculation and a vast majority of PDDA covered single particles were present in the dispersion so that this was the condition chosen for determining DHP concentration (C) effects on particle size and zeta-potentials. At 0.8 mM DHP, charge neutralization, maximal size, and visible precipitation indicated extensive flocculation and minimal colloid stability for the DHP/PDDA/PSS assembly. At 0.05 g L(-1) PDDA, isotherms of high affinity for DHP adsorption on PDDA-covered particles presented a plateau at a limiting adsorption of 135 x 10(19) DHP molecules adsorbed per square meter PSS which was well above bilayer deposition on a smooth particle surface. The polyelectrolyte layer on hydrophobic particles was swelled and fluffy yielding ca. 6 +/- 1.5 nm hydrodynamic thickness. Maximal and massive adsorption of DHP lipid onto this layer produced polydisperse DHP/PDDA/PSS colloidal particles with low colloid stability and which, at best, remained aggregated as doublets over a range of large lipid concentrations so that it was not possible to evaluate the mean total thickness for the deposited film. The assembly anionic lipid/cationic PDDA layer/polymeric particle was relatively stable as particle doublets only well above charge neutralization of the polyelectrolyte by the anionic lipid, at relatively large lipid concentrations (above 1 mM DHP) with charge neutralization leading to extensive particle aggregation.     

Amperometric choline biosensor fabricated through electrostatic assembly of bienzyme/polyelectrolyte hybrid layers on carbon nanotubes

We report a flow injection amperometric choline biosensor based on the electrostatic assembly of the choline oxidase (ChO) enzyme and a bienzyme of ChO and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) onto multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) modified glassy carbon (GC) electrodes. These choline biosensors were fabricated by immobilization of enzymes on the negatively charged MWCNT surface through alternately assembling a cationic poly(diallydimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) layer and an enzyme layer. Using this layer-by-layer assembling approach, a bioactive nanocomposite film of PDDA/ChO/PDDA/HRP/PDDA/CNT (ChO/HRP/CNT) and PDDA/ChO/PDDA/CNT (ChO/CNT) was fabricated on the GC surface. Owing to the electrocatalytic effect of carbon nanotubes, the measurement of faradic responses resulting from enzymatic reactions has been realized at low potential with acceptable sensitivity. The ChO/HRP/CNT biosensor is more sensitive than the ChO/CNT one. Experimental parameters affecting the sensitivity of biosensors, e.g., applied potential, flow rate, etc., were optimized and potential interference was examined. The response time for this choline biosensor is fast (few seconds). The linear range of detection for the choline biosensor is from 5.0 x 10(-5) to 5.0 x 10(-3) M and the detection limit is about 1.0 x 10(-5) M.

Supported lipid bilayers lifted from the substrate by layer-by-layer polyion cushions on self-assembled monolayers

The formation of lipid bilayers, lifted from the solid substrate by layer-by-layer polyion cushions, on self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold was investigated by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP). The polyions poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) and polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) sodium salt were used for the layer-by-layer polyion macromolecular assembly. The cushion was formed by electrostatic interaction of PDDA/PSS/PDDA layers with a negatively charged surface of an SAM of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) on gold. The lipid bilayer membranes were deposited by vesicle fusion with different compositions of SOPS (an anionic lipid, 1-stearoyl-2-oleoyl-phosphatidylserine) and POPC (a zwitterionic lipid, 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylcholine). In the case of pure SOPS and for lipid mixtures with a POPC composition up to 25%, single bilayers were deposited. FRAP experiments showed that single bilayers supported on PDDA/PSS/PDDA/MUA were mobile at room temperature, with lateral coefficients of approximately (1.2–2.1)×10⁻⁹ cm²/s. The kinetics of the addition of the ion-channel-forming peptide protegrin-1 to the supported bilayers was detected by SPR. A two-step interaction was observed, similar to the association behavior of protegrin-1 with bilayers supported on PDDA/MUA. The results are similar to that of supported lipid bilayers without a layer-by-layer cushion. The model membrane system in this work is a potential biosensor for mimicking the natural activities of biomolecules and is a possible tool to investigate the fundamental properties of biomembranes.     

Kinetic studies of glucose oxidase in polyelectrolyte multilayer films by means of scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM)

Multilayer films of glucose oxidase (GOx) and poly(dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride) (PDDA) prepared by layer-by-layer deposition were studied using scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). Aminated glass slides were coated with five bilayers of poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS) and PDDA and used as substrates onto which GOx/PDDA multilayers were deposited. UV-Vis experiments confirmed multilayer growth, scanning force microscopic images provided morphological information about the films. SECM current-distance curves enabled the determination of kinetic information about GOx in GOx/PDDA multilayers as a function of layer number, film termination, inert covering layers, and enzyme substrate concentration after fitting to numerical models. The results indicate that only the topmost layers contributed significantly to the conversion. An odd-even pattern was observed for PDDA-terminated films or GOx-terminated films that correlated with morphological changes.     

Fabrication of free-standing multilayer films by using pH-responsive microgels as sacrificial layers

A facile way to prepare free-standing polyelectrolyte multilayer films of poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate)(PSS)/poly(diallyldimethylammonium)(PDDA) was developed by applying a new pH-dependent sacrificial system based on cross-linked poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) microgels. The tertiary amine groups of PDMAEMA microgels can be protonated in acidic environment, and the protonated microgels were deposited by layer-by-layer (LbL) technique with PSS. PSS/PDDA multilayer films were constructed on the top of the PSS/microgels sacrificial layers. The LbL assembly process was investigated by UV–vis spectroscopy. Further study shows that the free-standing PSS/PDDA multilayer films can be obtained within 3 min by treating the as-prepared films in alkali aqueous solution with a pH of 12.0. The pH-triggered exfoliation of PSS/PDDA multilayer films provides a simple and facile way to prepare LbL assembled free-standing multilayer films.
